THE BATTALION
Wildlife Ranching To Aid
Riddle Of World Food Supply
Wild game ranching may be
come increasingly important as
a food supply for underdeveloped
countries throughout the world,
contends a wildlife science pro
fessor at Texas A&M.
Dr. James G. Teer, Caesar Kle
berg professor at A&M, made the
observation after a six-week visit
to several Central and East Afri
ca countries.
“Game cropping is being done
there by governmental agencies
and private businesses,” Teer ex
plained. “Hunters kill wild ani
mals and sell them through meat
markets in the larger cities.”
“A lot of the country in Cen
tral and East Africa has game
populations not being adequately
harvested by sport hunting,”
Teer said. “In many cases, the
rangeland is harmed by over
browsing by wild animals.”
and 25 wounded in a 20-minute
giraffes, zebras, several species
of small antelope, Cape buffalo
and wart hogs are among the
animals being butchered, quick-
frozen and taken by freezer vans
to wholesalers for wide distribu
tion,” Teer noted. “This meat is
more economically priced than
beef.”
Teer said Zambia’s Game De
partment harvested 250 tons of
elephants, hippos and Cape buf
falo last year and sold the meat
for $168,000. Almost one-third
of that sum was added through
sale of the hides. Elephants
hooves were made into novelty
items for tourists.
“In South Rhodesia,” Teer con
tinued, “a private firm has har
vested similar animals for mar
ket. Also taken were eland —
the largest African antelope, ku
du, impala, duyker and other to
the tune of 20,000 pounds per
week.”
Teer said many of the game
animals from Africa are being
introduced in Texas for sport
hunting.
“We don’t need these animals
for meat here,” Teer declared,
“but we should consider them for
marginal rangelands where cattle
and other domestic livestock are
not particularly productive. Some
of the desert country in the
Southwestern United States,
Mexico and South America might
make suitable habitats for these
wild animals.”
Africa, he pointed out, has
millions of acres of land which
can’t be ranched with domestic
animals because of the presence
of the deadly tse-tse fly. The
hardier African wildlife is ap
parently immune to sleeping
sickness carried by the tse-tse
fly.
Teer’s trek to Africa, funded
by the Caesar Kleberg Founda
tion for Wildlife Conservation,
also involved talks with officials
of the Serengeti Research Insti
tute in Tanzania, and the Mam
mal Research Institute of the
University of Pretoria.

Nudist Camp Fears
Building Upsurge
HOLLYWOOD,
Devereux Deakin
that residents of a proposed high
rise apartment next door to his
nudist camp will see the naked
truth. He’s afraid they might feel
compelled to photograph it.
So, to thwart any would-be
shutterbugs, Deakin, manager of
the Coral Lakes Health Resort,
decided Wednesday to plant some
“high rise trees. 11
The problem arose when Holly
wood, Inc., a giant development
corporation, announced Tuesday
it would erect several five-story
buildings about 500 feet from the
nine-acre resort where naked
members romp through the woods,
play tennis and volleyball and
swim.
“People might have telephoto
lenses and sell pictures,” Deakin
said in an interview. “I wouldn’t
mind but I sure don’t want some
guy selling my wife’s picture
around town.”
Faced with the possible prob
lem of nosey neighbors, Deakin
said he felt the trees will insure
privacy for his 1,000 members.
“Once we get the trefes up the
only way they could see us would
be to fly over in a helicopter,”
he said.
Deakin said he received offers
to sell the nine-acre site but took
no action.
“I don’t care what they do.
They can’t push us out,” he said
of Hollywood, Inc. ‘The camp has
been here for more than five years
Fla. IA > ) — was not trying to force his new
isn’t worried neighbors to move. And he ex
pressed doubts the presence of
the Coral Lakes Health Resort
would hurt his proposed $85
million project.
However, Horvitz said he
thought Deakin eventually would
seek more secluded pastures.
“I’ve nothing against nudist
camps but they only prevail in
secluded, isolated areas,” Horvitz
said. “When population prevails,
nudity doesn’t.”

graduate students each year to
study ecology at both locations,”
Teer said. “Serengeti is a good
place to train scholars because of
the presence of outstanding sci
entists from all over the world,
and the great outdoor labora
tory.”
“It has some of the finest
wildlife spectacles in the world.
Hundreds of thousands of ani
mals roam the plains, much the
same as bison must have in the
United States more than 100
years ago,” he continued.
Teer said university officials
hope to start the cooperative pro
grams with Serengeti and Pre
toria this summer.
“This will offer an opportunity
for A&M to play an international
role in the conservation and de
velopment of additional uses of
wildlife,” he emphasized.
“Serengeti, part of Tanzania’s
national parks, covers about 6,-
000 square miles,” Teer com
mented. “For the sheer beauty
of the place, for its scientific
value and man’s enjoyment, we
have an obligation to preserve
it.”

NEW YORK (A*)—Black power
militant H. Rap Brown took
refuge inside the Cuban Mission
on Manhattan’s upper East Side
Wednesday night, after a New
York City policeman tried to stop
and question him.
The officer, whose name was
not immediately available, said he
stopped Brown and another
Negro when they emerged from
the mission on East 67th Street.
One of the Negroes was said to
have been carrying a package.
“What have you got there?”
the policeman said he inquired.
“Why don’t you mind your own
business and go away?” was the
response of a Negro said to re-
seble the 23-year-old Brown.
The officer then said he at
tempted to take the Negroes into
custody and that the one resem
bling Brown pushed him. The
two men then reportedly ran back
inside the Cuban mission, while
an armed mission guard held the
door open for them.
Confirmation of Brown’s pres
ence in the mission was obtained
later in calls by newsmen. How
ever, an unidentified man answer
ing the telephone there said: “Mr.
Brown does not want to make a
declaration. I am very sorry,ii|
I am busy. Goodbye.”
